ACTA2 pathogenic variants predispose to thoracic aortic disease, and a subset of variants lead to early onset atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). The molecular pathway linking misfolded SMA (α-smooth muscle actin) monomers to augmented atherosclerosis-associated smooth muscle cell phenotypic modulation can be modeled in vitro by stably expressing the ACTA2 p.R149C variant in Acta2-/- smooth muscle cells.

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a fatal genetic heart disease primarily caused by mutations in desmosomal genes, leading to impaired cell-cell adhesion, ventricular arrhythmias, and progressive heart failure. Although gene therapy for specific ACM populations shows promise, it remains unclear whether mutation-agnostic pathways dysregulated across desmosomal mutations could be exploited for therapeutic intervention in this genetically broad and severe population. The reduction in expression of the ventricular gap junction protein Cx43 (connexin-43) is a common molecular alteration underlying desmosomal junctional deficits and arrhythmias, suggesting a potential common underlying mechanism and a therapeutic target for ACM. We hypothesized that restoration of Cx43 expression could be a mutation-agnostic intervention for ACM.

Pathogenic SCN5A variants are associated with inherited arrhythmias such as long-QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, and sick sinus syndrome. While Nav1.5, an α-subunit of the cardiac sodium channel encoded by SCN5A, has been considered to function as a monomer, recent studies reveal that a reduction of sodium current in wild-type Nav1.5 can be caused by dimerization with loss-of-function mutated Nav1.5 through dominant-negative effects. However, the clinical significance of the dominant-negative effect remains unclear.
